Skies Appear Sunny For Keizer Home Sales!

‘Scrooge Syndrome’ Drives Cash Transactions
The biggest surprise is the number of area properties that are selling for cash, with no lender involved. Given much higher scrutiny of homebuyers from banks and mortgage lenders, this should not be that noteworthy.

Some lenders have earned their hard-nosed reputation

However, according to the Willamette Valley Multiple Listing Service (WVMLS) cash home purchases around greater Keizer are now the second most popular way to buy property. Even more amazing is that cash transactions are more than twice as popular as the next most used financing option, an FHA loan.
